Los Villanos De Boraville - Haciéndolo En La Boraway (Velvet Cave Records ‎2008)


Bio  (by Israel “Indy Tumbita” Ruiz)                                                          

For several years I  lived in the city of Pontevedra while studying Fine Arts. During this time I met Juan Leiva (Guly) and together we decided to start a garage band which we called “Los Villanos de Boraville”. It was 2005 and the city of Lérez did not know what was coming. One month after the first rehearsal we recorded our first demo titled “Alligator Wine”. Soon we consolidated both the line-up (Arthur Morgan joined on bass and Alberto “Six Fingers” on Farfisa) and the sound, starting to work on what would be our second demo: “La Noche del Cazador”. In these two demos you can perfectly perceive our taste for the Garage Rock of bands like The Sonics, Grass Roots, Los Negativos, The Fuzztones, Miracle Workers, Link Wray...

In April 2008, we released our first CD " Haciéndolo En La Boraway" (Velvet Cave Records) from which two songs were extracted for the compilation "The 6th Generation Nation Vol.1" by Velvet Cave Records, another for volume 2 of the same compilation and two for the compilation Megaton Yeye Vol.11 (Bonvivant Records).

In the summer of 2009 we recorded our second LP. "Coolio Weeckendo: Acción, Psychosis y Rock and Roll" which never saw the light, although some songs can be listened on our bandcamp site. The cover of this second work was commissioned by my friend, the graphic artist, Nieves Prado.    -Source                                                   

Los Villanos de Boraville is the side project set up by Israel on the fringes of the Tumbitas. A 60's garage band with organ in a Miracle Workers / Long Ryders vein with some surf parts (“Impala”) and a good half of the songs are sung in Spanish (not immediately obvious, but there is at least one great success, ”El Sabado Adios”, and long live the gloomy sundays).

We will also remember the first track "The Haunted House" from this album “Haciéndolo En La Boraway”, which is reminiscent of the Chesterfield Kings “Stop!” era.    -Source

    Your problem is no problem as both zippyshare-links are still alive, but you probably need a VPN. In some countries zippyshare is blocked.
